Chickpea, courgette and feta burgers

1. Place the chickpeas in a food  and blend until smooth. Transfer to a bowl and stir in the carrot, courgette, basil and feta until combined. Using your hands, divide the mixture into 4 and shape into burgers. Place on a baking sheet and chill for 1 hour.

2. Cook the burgers on a lightly oiled barbecue, frying pan or under a hot  grill for about 6–8 minutes, turning once during cooking until golden  brown and hot.

3. Meanwhile, make a raita by mixing together the yogurt, mango chutney, cucumber and half the mint.

4. Place the wraps on another part  of the barbecue or frying pan and  cook for 2 minutes, turning once
during cooking. Fold and place  on serving plates. Top each with a  burger and then spoon over the raita,
shredded onion and remaining mint.  Serve immediately.
